You should get a flea collar if things are bothering you.

Just another uninformed opinion barking again

Decius, wild dogs run in packs for strength, and bark far more loudly. Wolves, on the other hand, run alone.

Every wolf suffers fleas, though; but it’s easy enough to scratch.

Hoopla, and Pegg [a good guy] aside, that movie’s not going anywhere. I doubt it’ll break 50 million opening weekend and that’ll probably fall off 30-50% after that, and many of the those here and elsewhere awaiting this movie like the Second Coming, will be the first to jump into the escape pods when it bombs and begin bleating:

“See, I told you they should’ve made a [FILL IN THE BLANK] movie…” Count on it.

Sit back and wait…

to see Pegg’s personal sci-fi geekyness credentials you should check out the channel 4 (UK) sitcom he wrote and stared in, Spaced. Its choc full of in jokes and ironies to all kinds of stuff, though interesting whilst theres plenty of star wars references star trek doesn’t get a look in….

You’re welcome, Xai.

I linked to that “review,” but that’s not an endorsement.

“dam typonians” <- love it. you have a crafty sense of irony.

thanks Dave…. I read it.

sounds either incomplete (rough draft) or a hoax. What screewriter has to use f*cking over and over to make a point?

Hoax

I can accept cautious optimism or cautious pessimism… but not out right hate and bile for a product no one’s seen yet.

Typonians got me too…

That sentence should read:
“I don’t think that even the most optimistic fan would do that at this point.”

Sorry.

#138—”I wouldn’t herald JJ’s Trek as a new era just yet”

I don’t think that even the most optimistic fan who do that at this point. However, it would be equally senseless to declare it a failure or even a “one shot movie” without it even having been released yet. Just as it might be “all she wrote” for Trek, it may very well open new doors for the franchise instead. It has more potential to do so than any previous ST film, that’s for sure.
